The exhibition, entitled SAID, is the second such exhibition to feature the work of university students. Gallery representatives say the goal is to advance the development of the next generation of artists and art professionals.

ACU student artists represented include Hortencia Flores, Asja Leznina, Paris PLR and SM Tracy. All are from ACU's Department of Art and Design.

"The Department of Art and Design is honored by the opportunity to showcase the work of our best fine arts students in this prestigious gallery," says ACU professor of art Robert Green. "I'm excited that this group of students rose to the challenge and put together a tight, strong body of paintings and sculptures."
